The Western traveller gazes with deep
sympathy upon the grave OF the Chinese;
it is a simple, conical mound of earth,

majesty with tall plant of waving grass.
1t is pleasing to note, however, while
speaking of this subject by way of con-
trast, that in our American cities, where
formal cemeteries with unnecessarily
large and meaningless monuments were
the rule, there is developing strong de-

WASHINGTON'S HORSES.

Old citizens of Alexandria say that
ginia, and that as a boy he broke to the
saddle the colts of his neighborhood. It
is said that he once rode ten different
horses into Alexandria in single week,
and during his later years his stables at
Mount Vernon were among the best in
the country. He visited his horses upon
rising in the morning, and always saw
that they had their breakfast before he
took his own. He kept thoroughbred
horses, and his establishment at Mount
Vernon was much like that OF great
English lord. He had his pack of hounds.
and before the Revolution he was very
fond of fox hunting. He followed the
the death. He had a regular hunting
costume and his favorite hunter was a
fiery, long-limbed horse which he called
Blueskin," probably from its color-a
fine dark iron gray. His hunting cos,
tune was blue coat, scarlet waistcoat,
buckskin breeches and top boots. He
wore a velvet cap, and carried whip
with long thong. He ridiculed the idea
that he could be thrown, and he was
wont to say he required only one good
quality in horse-namely, ait must go
along" 1t was his custom at Mount
Vernon. prior to the Revolution, to hunt
three times a week, and the game chased
was made up of gray foxes and stays.
His last hunt was in 1855, when he killed
stag weighing LAG pounds.
George Washington was very kind to
his horses, and displayed great deal of
sentiment in connection with his treat
ment of some of them. The horse he
rode when he received the sword of Corn
wallis, on the 10th of October, 1881, was
a fine chestnut charger, with white face
and legs. Washington took him to Mount
Vernon after the war, but never allowed
him to do stroke of work.

AN ANIMAL ARMY.

Marvellous invaders are the jennings.
They are near relatives of the short-tailed
field mouse, and are about five inches
long, with round heads, brown fur and
bead like eyes. Their home is in the
highlands, or fells, OF the great central
mountain chain of Sweden and Norway,
where they build nests of grass for their
young. The jennings are spiteful little
creatures when aroused, sitting up on
their hind legs and fighting with will.
Not only are they pugnacious, but ex-
tremely restless and migratory as well;
and every five, ten, or twenty years they
seem possessed by desire to see foreign
lands.
Thereupon they one and all leave their
settlements and start out in tens of thou
sands, overrun the cultivated tracts Of
land in both Norway and Sweden, and
ruin the plants and vegetation. They
march only at night, pressing on slowly
in one straight course, and allow nothing
to disturb them. Birds and various ami
mails follow and prey upon them; but,
Notwithstanding this, they actually in
crease in numbers, gaining recruits as
they the advance. Rivers are swan and

OLD AGE.

Dean Bradley, successor of Stanley in
the deanery of Westminster, tells an an
ecdote of him as he neared his sixtieth
year. He was travelling in Germany on
Rhine steamer, and getting acquainted
with boy, who asked him his age, which
being answered, he said:
"Why, all your life is over"
"No," said the dean, "The best is yet
to come"
"You must be on the wrong side of
sixty" said one acquaintance to another.
"No," he replied, Il am on the right
side"
Old age is cheerless enough to one
lacking faith in God and Christ, but
bright with divinest hopes when one has
for his portion the Christ, whom to know,
with the Father, is eternal life. Let every
man mourn as old age creeps upon him
if he be without faith in the Holy One.
Let every man rejoice as age comes upon
him if he trusts in him who said, "Be-
cause live, ye shall live" Life here
is only the state of infancy.
A plain London hghterman, only a
navigator on the Thames, was in the Alb
hey, standing before the monument of
John Wesley, and as he talked with the
dean, knowing he had been to Palestine,
said:
cit must have been beautiful to have
walked where the Saviour walked"
eyes," and with sanity look, he said,
beautiful to walk in the steps of the Sa-
viour."
Stanley's words, as he spoke Of death,
are SO beautiful, we quote them:
"There the soul finds itself on the
mountain ridge overlooking the unknown
future; our company before is gone; the
kinsfolk and friends of many years are
passed over the dark river, and we are
left alone with God. We know not in the
shadow of the night who it is that touches
us-we feel only that the everlasting
arms are closing us in; the twilight OF
the morning breaks; we are bid to de-
part in peace, for by strength not our
own we have prevailed, and the path is
made clear before us."
Great and many are the compensations
of advancing age.-,Selected.

DIR. HOLINESS NEW POEM.

Read at the dedication of the o. W. Holme
Hospital, at Madison, Wis.,
Not ours to ask in freezing tones
His race, his calling, or his creed;
Each heart the tie of kinship owns
When these are human veins that bleed.
Here stand the champions to defend
From every wound that flesh can feel;
Here science, patience, skill shall blend
To save, to calm, to help, to heal.
Father of merciesi Weak and frail,
Thy guiding hand Thy children ask;
Let not the Great Physician fail
To aid us in our holy task.
Angel of love, for every grief
Its soothing balm, it's mercy brings,
For every pang the healing leaf,
For homeless want thy outspread wings.
Enough for thee the pleading eye,
The knitted brow of silent pain;
Thy portals open to sigh,
without the clank of bolt or chain.
Who is our brother? He that lies
Left at the wayside. bruised and sore;
His need our open hand supplies.
His welcome waits him at our door.
Source of all truth and love and light,
That warm and cheer our earthly days;
Be ours to serve Thy will Alright,
Be thine the glory and the praise,
